CEG CORRESPONDENT

Accelerated bridge construction (ABC) was the method chosen by SEMA Construction to replace the 50-year old Seagoville Road twin-bridges over I-635 in Dallas to minimize the impacts on traffic using the busy highway. SEMA Construction Inc. crews demolished the existing northbound bridge and replaced it with a new span on the weekend of Aug. 28 to 31, and then repeated the same process for the existing southbound bridge. Both bridges were 219 ft. long and had four lanes. The project began last May and crews are expected to leave the job site in late September, following the clean up and

punch list items. The new bridges are the same length as the originals (219 ft. long) – 105 ft. long for middle pieces and 57 ft. long for pieces on both ends, and 70 ft. wide. The $9.21 million project has been in planning for several years. Each bridge consists of 15 prefabricated concrete pieces: 250,000 lbs., including guard rails. SEMA established five fabrication yards to form the pieces, alongside and parallel to the existing bridges so that they could be rapidly placed. Bridge Design The new bridges were designed by TxDOT’s Bridge Division. see ABC page 36

The coronavirus is a fact of life on the construction job site this year, and contractors have been forced to change the way they complete projects as a result. It is an ongoing challenge as the industry conditions itself to new approaches to work and personal safety. But best practices and ingenuity have advanced safety and efficiency on the construction job site. Beyond social distancing, sanitizing and personal protection equipment (PPE), contractors and site owners are adopting site safety protocols for tracking traffic and materials; integrating apps, drones and wearables to monitor employee distancing and exposure; and expanding daily routines to include temperature checks and limit in-person meetings. “Responsible contractors are hungry to publicly prove they can work safely and prevent the spread of COVID-19 while supporting the nation’s critical infrastructure and providing much-needed income for the people who work on those projects,” wrote Jordan Hollingsworth, field operations manager of Safety Management Group, Indianapolis, Ind., in a company blog post. “After all, the construction industry employs almost 10.7 million people in the United States,” he added. Massman Construction, Overland Park, Kan., is clear about its company-wide safety policy. “The Massman Safety and Health Plan is a living document that is updated frequently based on project-specific requirements for safety, security and environmental stewardship. The plan outlines the written program that assists our project teams in preventing incidents and injuries on our project sites.” Contractor Conquers Challenges Tempe, Ariz.-based Sundt Construction chose “to get out in front” of the challenge, taking a direct approach to the coronavirus. “Construction firms have been given a tall order: To maintain workers’ safety during a pandemic while also building essential structures that allow society to function,” the company stated in a press release on its pandemic response. see COVID page 37

Crews Work to Finish Cog Railway Project at Pikes Peak COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) Construction of a new cog railway to the top of Pikes Peak near Colorado Springs is halfway finished, and the popular tourist attraction is on track to open to the public next spring. Crews working on the Broadmoor Manitou and Pikes Peak Cog Railway recently completed construction of the second of three sections of track that allow trains to pass each other, The Colorado Springs Gazette reported. The newly reconstructed Mountain View passing area is about halfway up the line to the peak, which tops out at 14,115 ft. (4,302 m) above sea level. The first passing area was completed in June at an area called Windy Point. “The crews faced one of the toughest stretches of track to construct between these two points, a part of the line we call the ‘Big Hill,’ which is the longest, steepest and narrowest portion of track,” said Ted Johnston, assistant gener- Work began in March 2019 on the $100 million project, which includes renovation of the cog railway’s tracks, cogs, rail cars and depots. Construction is expected to wrap up by the end of the year. al manager of the railway.

Work began in March 2019 on the $100 million project, which includes renovation of the cog railway’s tracks, cogs, rail cars and depots. Construction is expected to wrap up by the end of the year, with the first ride set to take place in May. “Getting to the halfway point is a relief, and there's also a lot of excitement,” Johnston said. “A lot is starting to come together.” The railway began taking passengers up the scenic route in 1891 and grew into one of the area's most popular tourist attractions. It carried upwards of 2,300 passengers a day before it closed in late 2017 for winter maintenance. Aging infrastructure and equipment cast doubt on the railway's future after The Broadmoor hotel, which owns the railway, could not guarantee it would reopen while studying the cost of the rebuild. But hotel officials struck a taxincentive deal with the city of Manitou Springs to help finance the project. 

The state Department of Environmental Quality issued a mining permit last month for the first phase of the work, The Independent Record reported. The permit allows Sandfire Resources America, formerly Tintina Resources, to build roads and pads and construct a small reservoir. The company continues to apply for permits to tunnel underground and eventually mine and process copper-rich ore. While a lawsuit filed by mine opponents is pending in district court, the company began work with contractors on the site in southwestern Montana. “Life changed a lot on Aug. 15,” Sandfire Senior Vice President Jerry Zieg said. “We’re past the permitting phase, which is a phase where you spend a lot of time on the phone and sitting around waiting for things to happen. Now we're just really, really busy.” Supporters tout the economic benefit for Meagher County and the state, including revenue estimates of nearly $2 billion. The mine is located next to Sheep Creek, a major tributary of the Smith River, and the proximity has spurred groups such as the Montana Environmental Information Center and Trout Unlimited to oppose the project. Mine opponents filed a lawsuit in June challenging the state's decision to permit the mine and questioning whether environmental analysis fully analyzed the risks. Opponents are also attempting to intervene with the Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation as Sandfire seeks a change of use to lease water rights for the mine. 

RDO Integrated Controls, Vision Aerial Partner on Drones To address customer needs for a drone with more payload options, RDO Integrated Controls partnered with Vision Aerial in Bozeman, Mont., to develop a new unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) primarily for construction and earthmoving companies. Effective immediately, the new RDR series drones are available on rdomarketplace.com and RDO Integrated Controls will support the drones through its Solutions Center and Fleet Shield Services program. Initially developed with a mapping component, the RDR series UAVs are customizable for companies needing various configurations, including LiDAR, hyperspectral, multispectral and thermal. Two models are offered: the RDROne drone is a tri-copter design, while the RDRTwo drone, designed for heavier payloads, is a hexacopter.

Initially developed with a mapping component, the RDR series UAVs are customizable for companies needing various configurations, including LiDAR, hyperspectral, multispectral and thermal.

The drones are ideally suited for companies in the construction and aggregates industries, with custom options available for applications in agriculture, inspection, law enforcement and security, mining,

oil and gas inspection, professional photography and cinematography, as well as survey. The new UAVs give companies assurance they are in full compliance with rules and regulations on

every job site. The Vision Aerial drones provide fast and accurate volume and grade measurement, to a 10th-ft. accuracy or better when used with ground control or the additional RTK systems now

available, according to the manufacturer. The drones are built to fly in winds up to 35 miles per hour and offer up to 35 minutes of continuous operation in a single flight. The RDROne and RDRTwo are easy to use, even for first-timers, from set up and flight planning to easy automatic or manual flight. The drones are compatible with any photogrammetry data management software including RDO’s new online product, RDOai, a cloud-based 3D data management system and analytics platform. Regardless of software choice, both the RDROne and RDRTwo are supported by the RDO Integrated Controls Solutions Center, based in Billings, and customers may choose various levels of support through the company’s Fleet Shield Services program.

The Trump Administration announced a total of $400 million in federal funding will be allocated by the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to four transit infrastructure projects in Arizona, Indiana, Missouri and New Jersey. The projects are advancing towards readiness to receive a Full Funding Grant Agreement (FFGA) under FTA’s Capital Investment Grants (CIG) Program. The projects must meet additional requirements in law before a grant can be awarded. “This $400 million federal investment will help ensure that critical updates can be made to our country’s public transit systems so they remain safe and operational,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Elaine L. Chao. With this announcement, FTA has advanced funding for 39 new CIG projects throughout the nation under this administration since Jan. 20, 2017, totaling approximately $9.7 billion in funding commitments. “These critical rail transit infrastructure projects will help communities improve transit service as they continue to address the impacts of COVID-19 and recover from this public health emergency,” said FTA Deputy Administrator K. Jane Williams. The CIG Program provides funding for major transit infrastructure capital investments nationwide. Projects accepted into the program must go through a multi-year, multi-step process according to requirements in law to be eligible for consideration to receive program funds. CIG Projects Receiving Allocations Phoenix, Ariz.: Northwest Extension Phase II Project The Phoenix Northwest Extension Phase II Project is a New Starts project in the engineering phase of the CIG program. The project is a 1.5-mi. extension of the Valley Metro light rail system from the existing end of line station in Northwest Phoenix to the Metrocenter Mall.

JCB Restores Vintage Backhoe Loader to Former Glory for UK-Based Contractor

Kirby-Smith Machinery www.kirby-smith.com

One of JCB’s longest-standing customers has unwrapped a unique present — a vintage backhoe loader restored to its former glory to mark the equipment manufacturer’s approaching 75th anniversary. Lincolnshire-based Eric Carnaby & Son has been a customer since 1959 and over the following six decades has bought more than 150 JCB machines. Now JCB has said thank you to the firm for its loyalty by restoring the Carnaby family’s cherished 1964 JCB 1 backhoe. The project was kept a closely guarded secret until George Bamford — grandson of JCB Founder Joseph Cyril Bamford CBE — sprung the restoration surprise during a visit to the company’s base in Immingham, near Grimsby, to collect the machine. Now six months later the backhoe has been handed back to the company after a team at JCB’s World HQ in Rocester, Staffordshire, spent hundreds of hours lovingly restoring it. Eric Carnaby & Son Director Roland Carnaby Junior said: “My family and I are over the moon with the restoration. Our JCB 1 is precious to us and we’ve been meaning to restore it for some time, but you know how it is — a business to run, and all that.” George Bamford said: “It has been amazing to see an old machine brought back to life by the JCB team. It looks just as it would have done on the day it came off the production line in 1964.” Founded by Eric Carnaby in 1946, the plant hire and road

John Deere Announces Grade Control Offering for Its L-Series Tractor Loaders The John Deere 210L and 210L EP tractor loaders are now available with grade control-ready and grade indication factory options, allowing for faster and more accurate fine grading. The grade technology options combined with an updated box blade result in increases to productivity and efficiency when completing site prep, road building and landscaping jobs, especially in tight areas, according to the manufacturer. “We’re excited to facilitate grade control solutions for customers involved in fine grading applications,” said Brian Hennings, product marketing manager, backhoes and tractor loaders, John Deere Construction & Forestry. “When utilizing grade control technology, operators can finish jobs faster with fewer passes and less rework. This results in less fatigue and more productivity, ultimately boosting the business’s bottom line.” The grade control-ready machines are designed to support 2D or 3D grade control technology solutions, automatically controlling the box blade’s lift and tilt cylinders. Additionally, the factoryinstalled grade control-ready solution requires no hydraulic hose disconnections or bracket welding, and is designed to minimize technology installation. When adding grade control capabilities in the field, the customer simply selects their preferred technology provider (e.g., Topcon, Trimble or Leica) and works with their dealer to install the finishing kit on the machine. These tractor loaders also are available with a factory-installed grade indication option. It provides an on-board readout of the machine cross slope and main fall slope in real time, all within the existing machine’s display. This simple, integrated solution requires no additional hardware or software. The 210L and 210L EP machines also are equipped with an updated box blade, providing a single attachment solution designed to both cut the grade and spread materials accurately with great visibility. The increased clearance of the ripper mechanism on the box blade allows rock and gravel to more readily pass through the frame. It also features fewer moving parts, increasing reliability, while the ripper hook has improved locking in the working position. The 210L is equipped with a 93-hp PowerTech Plus diesel engine, while

the 210L EP boasts a 69-hp Yanmar engine that requires no aftertreatment components needed to comply with Environmental Protection Agency emissions regulations, resulting in lower total cost of ownership and enhanced uptime. Both models feature a four-speed PowerShift transmission for smooth, no-clutch, fingertip shifting. The on-the-fly mechanical frontwheel drive can be engaged to give extra traction in poor job site conditions or to move heavy loads. An optional limited-slip front axle delivers 65 percent of available power to the tire with

the best traction for true all-wheel-drive pulling power. Additionally, compared to the K-Series models, loader lift cycle times and loader lifting capacity were increased by 26 and 17 percent, respectively, increasing productivity, according to the manufacturer. Additionally, when the ride control option is activated, the front loader hydraulic cylinders act as shock absorbers with or without full loads, smoothing box blading over rough terrain to help get sites to grade and reduce operator fatigue.

Co. Closes Communication Loop With FleetWatcher Tech Communication facilitates business. But even though people have been communicating for thousands of years, we are by no means perfect at the artform. That is especially true in the heavy construction industry where there are many moving pieces, changes are fluid and costs can quickly add up. Over-trucking or inefficient truck routing can have rolling consequences to project deadlines and profits. This was common for midwestern site development and highway contractor Delta Asphalt until it implemented a new system to help its communications connect with its bottom line. Delta Asphalt operates 11 asphalt plants and five quarries across three states with 40 to 50 trucks in rotation over the summer months. With job sites spread across state lines, Brad Marotti, construction manager of Delta Asphalt, and his team needed a way to manage strict deadlines and budgets. That’s when they began implementing FleetWatcher Materials Management Solution (MMS), a wireless telematics system developed specifically for paving contractors. Two years into using Fleetwatcher’s MMS, Delta Asphalt has achieved significant savings and is still finding new ways to utilize the system in its everyday operations. Marotti and his team knew they were onto something early in their FleetWatcher tenure when they were able to save roughly $30,000 on a mill and fill job in Arkansas. With 50,000 tons of asphalt to install across 10 mi. of Highway 62 in Ash Flat, Arkansas, Delta began working with eight to 12 trucks. Shortly after starting, they saw that they weren’t managing their trucks well. FleetWatcher transponders relayed truck position information in real time, so Delta personnel saw trucks stacked at the paver and others waiting in queue for materials and adjusted accordingly to establish a good rhythm between the paver and the plant. “We cut out two trucks on that job by watching the plant time. Everyone has eyes on trucks at the plant. The way that we go about setting up trucks, the communication,

Prior to using FleetWatcher, foremen would have to call the office to get in touch with any drivers. Now everything lives inside the product, which can be installed through a hardwired battery connection, a cigarette lighter adapter or smart phone apps. This allowed the foreman to see where trucks are in real time and call their drivers directly, taking out the middleman.

that process has changed. The plants are just as involved in managing the trucks as the road is now, and that wasn’t that way before,” Marotti said of the changes since implementing FleetWatcher. Delta Asphalt not only saved money but time and resources with its new materials management solution. Prior to using FleetWatcher, foremen would have to call the office to get in touch with any drivers. Now everything lives inside the product, which can be installed through a hardwired battery connection, a cigarette lighter adapter or smart phone apps. This allowed foreman to see where trucks are in real time and call their drivers directly, taking out the middleman. More visibility led to more flexibility on individual projects for Marotti and Delta Asphalt. “Before, you’d have to pick up your phone and hope that you got them in a coverage area. Now, you see them on the map,

and so you call the plant foreman or the onroad foreman, you go hey, there’s a truck five minutes from you. We grab them. It’s just made it so much more efficient,” said Delta Asphalt Transportation Manager Bobby Stockton. This product flexibility became even more important in light of the coronavirus pandemic. Delta Asphalt transitioned from printing paper tickets that passed through four to five hands to issuing digital tickets through FleetWatcher to all appropriate parties. Beyond safety benefits, Delta Asphalt’s digital ticketing saves its drivers a trip to the control room, which adds up over the course of a day to approximately 15 minutes saved per truck. In fact, Delta Asphalt believes it has already printed its last paper ticket. FleetWatcher was not the first GPS technology Delta Asphalt utilized, but just two years into the MMS program and it is already more widely adopted and used than any previous technology. So why was this

solution sticky when others weren’t? According to Delta it’s as simple as measuring results. Construction projects generate a wealth of data, some of which is more important than others in making sure you stay on budget and meet deadlines. With FleetWatcher’s MMS, the team at Delta easily tracks KPIs for each job, shift, and day for greater visibility into projects. With this visibility Stockton and his team were able to sell their truck owner-operators on the service not as a tattletale box but as a paving management tool designed to help streamline their work and remove unnecessary bottlenecks, according to the company. After initially being apprehensive at the thought of introducing the new system to independent owner-operators, Stockon has been pleasantly surprised by the drivers’ reaction. “They liked the fact that when they showed up on the road, that they were going to get unloaded, so when you turn that into dollars and cents for those drivers and for those owners, they totally were on board.” To communicate is to listen, understand and respond. In the business world this means getting the right information from your operations, analyzing them in real time and effectively using that information to inform future decision making. By installing FleetWatcher MMS in its fleet, Delta Asphalt was able to close the loop on its communications and turn construction headaches into the building blocks of efficient operations. About Earthwave Technologies Earthwave Technologies manufactures construction-specific wireless telematic products which provide complete visibility to all components used within the process. Its FleetWatcher Materials Management Solution (MMS) is being used by asphalt paving contractors across the United States. It also offers modules for e-ticketing, offroad construction, and more.

ACPA Announces Updates to 2020 Certification Program The American Concrete Pumping Association (ACPA) announced updates to the ACPA Operator Training and Certification Program. Referred to as “Certification 2020,” the new program will launch by mid-year 2020 for ACPA operator certification. “The new training and certification program focuses on elevating the quality and effectiveness of operator safety training and will raise the bar for safety in our industry,” said Christi Collins, ACPA executive director. Certification 2020 includes expanded emphasis on major hazards and accidents associated with concrete pumps. Because driving accidents are the most common accident involving a concrete pump, the certification training includes a 22-minute driving video. While most driving accidents occur during backing, an increasing number of accidents occur when pumps make righthand turns. The new certification presentation addresses both of these common driving hazards. Other features include new graphics and images for an updated look and feel as well as open-ended “talking points” to encourage audience participation. Talking points are also designed to allow a company to highlight its company policies. The time required to complete the presentation is estimated to take longer than the previous presentation due in part to the discussion points. With Certification 2020, ACPA offers three ways for operators to achieve ACPA safety training and certification, including: • Click Safety: ACPA has contracted with Click Safety to create an online portal, allowing operators and any other interested parties to log in and attend the Operator Safety Presentation course. The program utilizes voice recognition software to ensure the person taking the course remains engaged for the entire program. Training is divided into modules, allowing participants to view the presentation at different times if desired. At the program’s conclusion, Click Safety provides a link to the ACPA’s online testing site, where participants may complete the test for ACPA certification. Click Safety also will be available in Spanish. Cost has yet to be determined.

• ACPA Authorized Training Administrator (ATA): A company may either designate a person from their company to go through the ACPA Train the Trainer course that teaches the proper way to administer the training and certification, or they may hire an ATA by contacting the ACPA National Office. Fees will be charged if using an outside ATA. There will be a onetime cost to go through the Train the Trainer program, but it allows a company to train all its operators at once or individually as needed. The Train the Trainer program development is in progress, with an anticipated completion in late spring 2020. Training workshop locations and details will be announced

in early- to mid-2020. • ACPA Operator Safety Seminar – Locations will be announced as they are reserved. Contact the ACPA National Office for more info. “To date, we’ve presented the new safety presentation at several seminars, with very positive feedback,” said Collins. “The ACPA Operator Certification Program is the only industry-recognized certification program for testing concrete pumping practices, and we’re proud of our recent updates which will help keep operators safer on their job sites.” Certification 2020 will include a revised certification test that’s a better measure of an operator’s knowledge on safe pumping procedures. Full implementation will occur by the end of 2020. For more information about the ACPA certification, contact the ACPA National Office at 614/431-5618 or email acpa@ concretepumpers.com.

SEMA Crews Demolish, Build New Bridges in 54 Hours

SEMA Construction Inc. crews demolished the existing northbound bridge and replaced it with a new span on the weekend of Aug. 28 to 31, and then repeated the same process for the existing southbound bridge. Both bridges were 219 ft. long and had four lanes. ABC from page 1

“The ABC method marks a paradigm shift in the project planning and procurement,” said Danielle Boyd, a TxDOT public information officer of the Dallas region. “It uses innovative planning, design, materials and construction methods min a safe and cost-effective manner. It also reduced the onsite construction time from months or years to just a few days. We chose this approach due to high traffic volumes on one of the busiest highways in North Texas and the lack of logical detours. Equipment Cranes were critical to the success of the project and a Liebherr LR 1400 lattice boom and Demag CC2500 were utilized to lift and place the prefabricated pieces into place. “The cranes did not work in tandem to lift the units,” SEMA’s Project Manager told Construction Equipment Guide. “One crane handled loading the units and the other picked off of the loaded truck and set it in the final position. During the milestones, the crane setting the units in final position performed a dry run of the critical picks before the unit was rigged up to the crane. It took approximately 40 to 60 minutes to lift and place a unit.” Nothing was left to chance in terms of maintenance in case a crane experienced issues. “We had support mechanics for every aspect,” said the project manager. “Each crane company had their mechanics on-site, the demolition contractor had their support mechanics on-site during their scope of work, and SEMA had several support mechanics on-site during the duration of each milestone.” The construction process began months in advance when crews started to prepare the bridges for the eventual demolition. “The old bridges were safe, but they were over 50-years-old,” said Boyd. “It was time for the bridges to be replaced. They could

Numbers at a Glance

Each bridge consists of 15 prefabricated concrete pieces: 250,000 lbs., including guard rails.

Project cost: $9.21 million Bridge length: 219 ft. total (105 ft. long for middle pieces, 57 ft. long for pieces on both ends) Bridge width: 70 ft. Bridge weight (per fabricated piece): 250,000 lbs., including guard rails Number of 500-ton cranes used: Two Total prefabricated pieces per bridge: 15 Total bridge length: 0.164 mi. The demolition and reconstruction of each bridge was completed in 54 hours.

have been rehabilitated, but we chose to replace them. This is a busy roadway.” While TxDOT has no immediate plans to use this method for other bridge projects on I-635, it is keeping its options open for future opportunities. The fabrication yards, adjacent to and close to the bridge sites, were established in May and June. “The yards were large enough for SEMA’s needs and were quickly established,” said Boyd. “The materials to manufacture the [concrete] bridge pieces were delivered on an ‘as needed’ basis.” Each bridge took approximately10 hours to demolish from the start to the cleanup of debris The debris, allowed to fall to the ground, was cleaned up prior to moving to the next activity. “Things went as planned,” said Boyd. “If any issues came up, the appropriate parties were notified. Effective and constant com-

munication made all the difference. Crews worked around the clock to get the project completed.” The traffic plan for the demolition and reconstruction was based closing the lanes on I-635 from 7 pm on Friday to 5 am on Monday. Detours were established to reroute motorists from the work zone. Message boards were set up to remind motorists to exercise caution when entering the work zones. The demolition and reconstruction of each bridge was completed in 54 hours, and due to the equipment being well maintained, no repairs were required during these operations. “SEMA, the subcontractors and TxDOT had weekly meetings to provide updates to keep all informed,” said Boyd. “Work was performed day and night.” Peak days had several SEMA and subcontractor personnel on-site, with local and

regional subcontractors brought on board. The demolition generated approximately a fair amount of concrete and rebar. SEMA also used excavators with hammer and shear attachments, and wheeled loaders. In the Dallas area, SEMA purchases and rents equipment from dealerships such as Joyce Crane and Sterling Crane. “An estimated 142,000 to 154,000 drivers traverse the busy roadway each day, and 11 percent of those vehicles are large trucks,” she added. “The project sits in the area near where I-635, I-20 and U.S. 175 converge, which would have likely led to extensive backups for extended closures that would have occurred with typical bridge reconstruction.” “We used the ABC method before, but in this case, the method was not used to reduce construction costs,” said Boyd. “Project materials vary for each project and the construction company.”  CEG

Keeping Employees Safe Includes Having Mitigation Plan COVID from page 1

“In more ways than one, Sundt is taking a hands-on approach to keeping our employee-owners safe on the job site.” Besides several company-wide response measures, Sundt is keeping every project as sanitary as possible. “With construction deemed essential, we needed to do the right thing and get out ahead of this,” said Omar Percy, health safety & environment (HS&E) manager of the Sundt Transportation Group. The problem? Most cleaning and hygiene supplies were sold out, not just in certain regions but across the country. “So, we got on the phones, the whole HS&E team, and started calling as many different vendors as we could to get the supplies our projects needed.” Priority was finding enough hand sanitizer for every Sundt field employee and subsafety protocols include monitoring job site traffic and materials; intecontractor.

and increase distance between employees, such as modifying work schedules to stagger work, providing alternating workdays, or accommodating extra shifts to reduce the total number of workers on a job site. • Rearrange administrative areas and breakrooms for 6 ft. of distance. Install shields or barriers where possible. • Avoid in-person meetings/ trainings whenever possible. Reduce the number of meeting participants. A cleaning and sanitation schedule should be added to the overall project schedule, suggests Safety Management. Frequentlytouched items, such as handrails, doorknobs, locks and latches, take priority. Worker education should address crosscontamination, with frequent cleaning of smartphones, computers, tablets, keyboards, pens and especially tools. Deliveries should be cleaned before being used, and door handles and gear knobs on delivery vehicles should also be sanitized as well. Controlling Job Site Safety Management advises limiting the number of jobsite visitors and their movement. Fencing, no-contact card readers, and modular turnstiles and guard station can help. Here are other suggestions: • Screen workers and visitors with devices such as no-contact thermometers or thermal imagery cameras to verify they do not have a fever. • Plan jobsite deliveries in conjunction with contact and cleaning protocols. Identify specific laydown and staging areas. Paint lines to limit areas for gang boxes and material sources. You can separate crew members from staging areas with jersey barriers. • Keep trash in specific spots where it can easily be transported from the site. Have delivery personnel stay in vehicles and minimize their contact with site workers. • Assess the site for physical distancing by limiting the potential for workers to gather (including construction equipment and site trailers. Alleviate potential choke points and install physical barriers and signage to restrict access to closed or confined spaces. • Mark site trailers and break areas for proper distancing. Eliminate community food and lunch areas, and remove coffee pots, water dispensers, microwaves and other shared appliances from break areas, suggests Safety Management. • Aerial lifts and other equipment should be used by just one person at a time, unless additional PPE is worn. • Shared tools should be eliminated wherever possible and all tools should be cleaned regularly. Any shared equipment should be disinfected before and after each use. see COVID page 60

Quarries, Mines Likely First to Use Autonomous Transport After developing steadily, step-by-careful-step, for more than 100 years, the automotive world is currently in the grip of a two-sided revolution: on the one side under pressure to reduce emissions by going electric, and on the other, striving to reach the Holy Grail of transport — the vehicle/machine that doesn’t need an operator. While great strides have been taken in the switch to hybrid and all-electric drive, creating autonomous transport is proving harder to perfect. “Automation has struggled in the mainstream automotive world because they are trying to get autonomous vehicles to work everywhere and safely coexist with all the variables of life — cars, trucks, bikes, people, dogs, cats — you name it,” said Perjohan Rosdahl, head of Off-Road at Volvo Autonomous Solutions. “Solving all these issues at the same time is proving to be an enormously complex challenge, even for the world’s biggest automotive and technology companies. Our approach is to start small, in a tightly confined environment and build on our successes over time. A perfect place to start is quarries, which have clearly defined load-anddump locations over generally short circuits.” Start Simple. Grow From There The move to autonomous machines will

about developing autonomous machines,” said Uwe Müller, sales and marketing lead of Off Road Solutions at Volvo Autonomous Solutions. “We are talking about automating a transport process, not just selling a single machine. Because of that we need to develop a total solution to manage this full process.”

While great strides have been taken in the switch to hybrid and all-electric drive, creating autonomous transport is proving harder to perfect.

not be simply a case of replacing a machine with an operator to one without. Autonomous machines will prompt the automation of the whole process and require a new way of looking at the entire operation. Volvo Autonomous Solutions was created on Jan. 1, 2020, to develop and commercialize autonomous transport solutions for the whole Volvo Group.

As well as providing adapted machines from within the Volvo Group, Volvo Autonomous Solutions will support customers with solutions to autonomous machines’ other challenges, namely the supporting infrastructure, control towers, repair and maintenance, virtual drivers and even run the operations if needed. “It’s as much about a new mindset as it is

Volvo Autonomous Solutions was created on Jan. 1, 2020, to develop and commercialize autonomous transport solutions for the whole Volvo Group.

Autonomous Enabled Platforms Volvo Autonomous Solutions is working closely with the Volvo Group’s other business areas, especially Volvo Construction Equipment in the off-road segment. This ensures that new machines, whether developed specifically to be autonomous — like Volvo’s TA-15 hauler — or traditional operator-based equipment, use the same autonomous drive platforms, coding languages etc. This allows them to be “talked to” in the same way, as well as offering the ability to scale up easily. Not all machines will be autonomous but being “autonomous enabled” allows Volvo Autonomous Solutions to supercharge the standard products into operator-less machines, using its own proprietary autonomous drive kit. Quarries and Mines “To reduce the complexity of the world we need to standardize the process as much as possible,” said Müller. “In quarries we can do this as they are in a confined area, are highly regulated and it’s easier to separate autonomous transport from other processes. Involving loading and dumping, the process itself is simple and repetitive.” “We are starting small with less complex use cases and will build on our successes,” said Rosdahl. “With the right customer partners, the next step could be underground mining and tunnel applications — autonomous machines (especially electric ones) work just as well in the dark as in the light, and it’s good to remove people as much as possible from these hazardous locations. From there we could focus on large earthmoving projects that are still contained but have more variables to cope with, as our technology becomes more embedded over time.” Improved process optimization, lower energy consumption and improved safety are just three of the benefits of autonomous machines. There are lots of R&D challenges to be overcome — and they will be. But it won’t be a technical innovation that makes the breakthrough — that requires changes in legislation and a new mindset as to how the whole process can operate more effectively. Make no mistake, autonomous solutions are coming, and they will be disruptive to current business models, according to Volvo. For more information, visit www.volvoce.com. 

Prinoth Crawler Carrier Is Useful for Many Applications When it comes to off-road construction projects, only a few types of specialized equipment is available to contractors out there. But between articulated trucks, crawler carriers and wheel loaders, what is the best solution out there for contractors? Given that each have their own specific benefits, the short answer is quite simply that it depends on the application you are performing. In this article, we’ll take a look at some of the highlight benefits for crawler carriers, more specifically for Prinoth’s Panther line-up. “When it comes to moving massive amounts of dirt or material nothing beats a 40-ton articulated or rigid frame dump truck — they can move mountains in a matter of days,” according to Prinoth’s Equipment World magazine. Now, while articulated dump trucks offer enhanced maneuvering abilities, tighter turning radiuses and have a lower center of gravity than rigid frame trucks, there are situations where you need all this maneuvering capacity to transport smaller amounts of material or implements on steep inclines or on soft grounds or even in rugged, hard-to-reach areas. That’s when you call for a rubber track crawler carrier. There are quite a few different names for these vehicles… tracked vehicles, rubber track-mounted dump trucks, crawler carriers, crawler dumpers, tracked carriers,

Here’s an overview of some of the things you should bear in mind before deciding if a Prinoth crawler carrier is the perfect vehicle for your application.

While articulated dump trucks offer enhanced maneuvering abilities, tighter turning radiuses and have a lower center of gravity than rigid frame trucks, there are situations where you need all this maneuvering capacity to transport smaller amounts of material or implements on steep inclines or on soft grounds or even in rugged, hard-to-reach areas. That’s when you call for a rubber track crawler carrier.

tracked dumpers, tracked utility vehicles, off-road tracked vehicles, utility tracked vehicles or all-terrain tracked vehicles and a few dif-

ferent styles of technologies as well. The Prinoth Panther line of crawler dumpers run on a rubber-

track undercarriage and are available with both a straight chassis or with a rotating upper structure resembling that of excavators.

Payload Payload is important to consider here. Depending on the time you have to do the job and the amount of material you need to move, productivity will probably be the first factor to consider in your decision. Let’s take a look at the options offered to you: • Articulated trucks hold considerable quantities, with the smallest, the Hydrema 707, carrying up to 14,000 lbs. in a single trip and all the major brands ranging from 40,000 to more than 130,000 lb. • The payload capacity in the Prinoth line of crawler dumpers ranges from 12,000 to 33,500 lb. from the smallest model called the Panther T6 to the biggest dumper, the Panther T16. Now you’ll understand that the T and number combination of these names represent the tonnage their trucks can move for you. This option would be your mid-size range with regards to payload. • Finally, you have wheel loaders which also can perform some off-road tasks such as backfilling or pipeline padding. Most big wheel loaders carry a maximum of 8 cu. yds. and most range from 2 to see PRINIOTH page 48

Crawler carriers are the perfect option here if leaving the grounds undisturbed is a requirement of the job you are performing. It also can be the perfect solution if you need to avoid leaving ruts behind since tracked dumpers will not get stuck nor create holes.

Prinoth Crawlers Feature Maneuverability, Flexibility PRINOTH from page 46

6 cu. yds. in capacity. The biggest tracked skid steers carry just half a cubic yard in their buckets. Here, no one product really has the advantage yet. It just depends on the job you are performing and the constraints of that job. Since Prinoth’s crawler carriers haul more than most tracked skid steers and wheel loaders but less than articulated dumpers, one could argue they are the perfect mid-size solution. Ground Pressure Ground pressure is the first and foremost reason why tracked dumpers exist. Because articulated dumpers run on tires, they will inevitably tear up the ground when turning and even when getting from A to B. These vehicles generate ground pressures of 30 to 60 psi. In contrast, the Panther T7R for example, even when it’s fully loaded with 15,432 lbs., exerts just 4.99 psi due to its rubber tracks and its high travel undercarriage. When running unloaded, this vehicle offers a low 3.00 psi of ground pressure. The difference is considerable. Crawler carriers are the perfect option here if leaving the grounds undisturbed is a requirement of the job you are performing. It also can be the perfect solution if you need to avoid leaving ruts behind since tracked dumpers will not get stuck nor create holes. Maneuverability Everyone knows that when driving a truck or a wheel loader, at the end of the road or the way, you have to back up and turn around to reload or dump. This will take more space, and will likely create ruts or

leave big tire marks behind. Tracked dumpers are the perfect solution to this problem. Some models, like the Prinoth Panther T7R and T14R for example are rotating dumpers. That means that their upper structure rotates 360-degrees over the lower part of the vehicle. The tracks are always ready to go forward again with the help of a quick direction reset feature. This saves time for the operator and

increases safety for everyone on the job site with fewer vehicle displacements. The crawler carriers’ advantage of being able to work in tight areas, maneuvering around on crowded construction sites and not creating unnecessary thread marks everywhere on the ground all in one machine is a huge one. Speed Tracks are not made to go as fast as tires

Examples of the most common applications include river and beaches restorations, lake reclamation, installation and maintenance of power electric transmission or distribution lines, working in and around wetlands, hauling material and equipment on pipeline jobs which often require minimal environmental impact.

but rather to reach areas where regular wheels won’t make it or will get stuck. So there is no doubt here that articulated trucks and wheel loaders are faster being able to run at speeds up to 35 mph or better. However, the average speed of most crawler carriers in the market is 6 mph while the Prinoth Panther vehicles average a much higher speed, ranging from 8 to 9 mph. They have a real advantage in their market because their high speed combined with their high payload provides contractors with a better level of productivity getting the job done up to 30 percent quicker. In conclusion, the unique design of the Panther crawler carriers offers a great solution to contractors looking to move material or equipment in remote areas, soft soils, or just overall in off-road construction projects. Examples of the most common applications include river and beaches restorations, lake reclamation, installation and maintenance of power electric transmission or distribution lines, working in and around wetlands, hauling material and equipment on pipeline jobs which often require minimal environmental impact. And as the Equipment World article stated, “In the earthmoving world, sales and interest in renting these machines continue to grow”.

POWER MOTIVE CORPORATION Spray King water tanks are manufactured at the 104-acre HOLT Manufacturing campus in Waco, Texas.

Ever since Benjamin Holt produced his first horse-drawn harvester in the late 1800’s, and then developed the first successful track-type tractor, which he named the “Caterpillar” in 1904, HOLT Manufacturing has been building the products that move industries forward. HOLT Manufacturing’s current owners, Peter J. Holt and Corinna Holt Richter, are direct descendants of Benjamin Holt. In 1933, William K. “Bill” Holt, Benjamin’s second son, established the William K. Holt Machinery Co. in San Antonio, Texas, as a Caterpillar equipment dealership. The need for innovation was apparent in Texas and regular requests for the design and fabrication of customized attachments for Cat machines is what first established Holt in the manufacturing business more than 80 years ago. Over the years, this custom design and manufacturing has included specialized tools, modifications to existing products and development of unique products for unique customer applications. HOLT Manufacturing is a complete resource to help customers solve specific problems by engineering solutions where there aren’t ready-made solutions available. Today, HOLT Manufacturing designs, engineers and produces a full line of Spray King water tanks for industrial

applications, oilfield engine skids and enclosures for generator packages and custom manufactured attachments, tools, components and special application machines. Designed to be safe and easy to maintain, the Spray King suite of tank solutions provide a lower center of gravity and can be easily customized to specific needs, according to the manufacturer. Five models currently are offered for a variety of applications.

The Holt name has been associated with a heritage of innovation for more than 100 years.

Custom Packaging Whether you’re working deep underground or far offshore, with HOLT Manufacturing you’ll get fully custom packaging that’s engineered and fabricated to fit your exact application. HOLT Manufacturing is based in a 100,000 sq. ft. fabrication facility in Waco, Texas. The facility has been configured to deliver fast turn-around on new product production while providing full customization as requested, according to the manufacturer. HOLT Manufacturing has at its disposal the full capability and experience of HOLT’s machining, welding and line boring operations to provide complete custom fabrication services — from concept, to design and drawings, to finished products.

Bell Adds 20-Ton B20E Low Ground Pressure Truck Bell Equipment has added the 20-ton Bell B20E low ground pressure (LGP) truck to its range, thus offering an additional solution for compromising underfoot conditions. A physically smaller incarnation of the Bell B30E, but entrenched with the same DNA, the B20E 6WD ADT has proved itself a popular machine from residential excavation to site sensitive archaeological digs. The 4-cylinder Mercedes Benz diesel engine provides 228 hp, (170 kW), enabling the B20E LGP to perform with a similar power-toweight ratio to the larger Bell B30E, according to the manufacturer. The six-speed Allison automatic transmission, now calibrated with Allison’s FuelSense, optimizes the shift points to match the haul profile with higher shift rpm on steeper gradients and lower shift rpm on flatter terrain. To ensure ultimate off-road capability, the B20E LGP’s purpose built 6x6-drivetrain is equipped with the latest Bell automatic traction control technologies. Interaxle differential lock (IDL) and limited slip differentials on all axles that provide full traction on deep wet ground or soft and sandy areas while fully sealed wet brakes comply with extreme conditions and reduce maintenance to a minimum. Enhanced flotation, another crucial off-road requirement, is guaranteed by low profile, extra wide 800/45 R30.5 tires that provide significantly low ground pressures under full load, according to the manufacturer. This economical ADT delivers excellent tons per gallon ratios and is considered a small site “access enabler” owing to its compact design. The 4-cylinder Mercedes Benz diesel engine provides 228 hp, (170 kW), enabling the B20E LGP to perform with For more information, visit www.bellequipmentna.com.  a similar power-to-weight ratio to the larger Bell B30E, according to the manufacturer.

Morooka Unveils Its Largest U.S.-Made Rotator-Type Carrier

Morooka’s VDR models all feature an upper structure that can rotate 360 degrees in either direction independently from the undercarriage and tracks. This helps users reduce surface damage that occurs when turning the machine, as well as aiding users that have limited operating space, according to the manufacturer.

In the first week of July, the first Morooka MST3000VDR rubber track carrier, with enhanced hydraulics and a larger bed, rolled off the line at the manufacturing facility in Ashland, Va. Morooka’s VDR models all feature an upper structure that can rotate 360 degrees in either direction independently from the undercarriage and tracks. This helps users reduce surface damage that occurs when turning the machine, as well as aiding users that have limited operating space, according to the manufacturer. The new MST-3000VDR is powered by a 300 hp Caterpillar C7.1 engine and can handle a maximum load of 36,000 lbs. Even so, it has a top speed of 8 mph and yet only exerts a ground pressure of 3.6-8.0 psi. Ken Byrd, founder and president of Morooka USA, recounted just how the new machine came to be. When Morooka customer Bobby Ross of Rosscapes Inc., in Canonsville, Pa., needed something with a bit more capacity than the MST2200VDR, he turned to his local dealer, Anderson Equipment. Anderson Equipment, Rosscapes and Morooka America worked closely together to develop the MST-3000VDR, the largest U.S.-built rotator to date. The carrier’s power and carrying capacity allow Rosscapes to move dirt nearly twice as fast as before, according to the company. Rosscapes, which specializes in environmental restoration services such as wetland and stream restoration, currently has a fleet of five Morooka rotators and is looking to add more MST-3000VDR units in the future. The MST-3000VDR is currently available by special order only. For more information about Morooka, visit www.morookacarriers.com.

Heavy-Duty Trucks Market Size: Will Reach$538.8B By 2026 Heavy-duty trucks are used for cargo transportation, logistics operations, construction, mining, etc. Growth in the manufacturing and construction sector, developments in road infrastructure, and steady growth in the freight and logistics sectors are some of the major factors that are expected to increase the heavy duty trucks market size. The global heavy duty trucks market size is projected to reach $538.8 Billion by 2026, from $446 Billion in 2019, at a CAGR of 3.2 percent during 2020 to 2026. Trends Influencing Heavy-Duty Trucks Market Size The mining industry also is on the rise. Since the mining industry is a big deployer of heavy-duty trucks, the industry’s improving condition is expected to increase the heavy-duty truck market size.

The increase in regional and global trade activities is anticipated to grow the heavy duty trucks market size.

People in developed economies are likely to buy a majority of their supplies from the internet. This has resulted in an increase in the number of goods transported by cargo trucks. Rising customer willingness to use vehicles fitted with advanced driver-assistive technologies and safety features are playing a major role in increasing the heavy-duty trucks market size during the forecast period. Furthermore, the implementation of

advanced connectivity solutions such as smart fleet management and telematics platforms stimulates the adoption of heavy-duty trucks. Supportive government initiatives and policies targeted towards the development of lower-emission heavy-duty trucks are expected to drive the heavy duty trucks market size. Higher vehicle ownership and maintenance costs may hamper the heavy duty trucks market size. However, manufacturers are deploying lean manufacturing processes and providing vehicle leasing facilities, thereby encouraging product adoption over the projected time frame. Heavy-Duty Trucks Market Share Analysis North America and Latin American markets have huge growth potential and are predicted to make massive contributions

towards the overall heavy-duty trucks market share. The APAC region witnessed a strong demand for heavy duty trucks due to the higher number of construction projects in the pipeline. Over the years, exports of heavy machinery from Singapore to the rest of the APAC region have grown steadily.

Embrace Technology During COVID COVID from page 37

Disinfectant wipes should be readily available. • Crew members should wash or sanitize their hands before and after use of tools or equipment. Leave tools to rest for three days when possible. Biting Tech Bullet If the tech industry wanted to burrow deeper into the construction market, the coronavirus has presented a win-win opportunity for both sectors to help each other. The construction industry could benefit from automation as it emerges from the pandemic while tech companies explore new applications for their devices and services. General Motors has developed an automated kiosk for temperature scanning, software for contact tracing, and a mobile app for touchless printing. For temperature scanning, GM integrates the operation of an infrared thermal camera with a computer and monitor. The system automatically detects when someone has stepped in front of the camera and checks for an elevated skin temperature, indicating it is either safe to proceed or the person is in need of further evaluation. The process can take as little as one to two seconds, relieving congestion at workplace entry points and reducing physical contact between workers. The scanning is also effective when the worker is wearing a mask or face covering. GM also made improvements to its COVID Watch, an open-source contact tracing application, adding real-time social distance alerts, boosting performance on both iOS and Android devices and adding support for Bluetooth beacons.

The company also is testing a mobile app for contact tracing that would create a record for the employee, listing other users with whom he or she has been in contact. It can help medical staff reach employees that had contact with a worker testing positive for COVID-19, while maintaining privacy and security. The app also constantly computes the physical distance between users and can send an alert to help encourage safe behavior. The International Transport Forum (ITF) has tracked the growing use of drones to monitor communities for social distancing. It stands to reason they are used on construction sites for the same, as well as tracking jobsite traffic, material deliveries and visitors. More sophisticated applications noted by ITF include the installation of thermal cameras on drones to detect infected crew members via body temperature. Wearables are currently being used for the same types of applications. A Canadian company has created a device that can be worn on the wrist, around the neck or in a pocket, specifically for COVID-19 contact tracing. Software developers are getting in on the act, too. Cloudbased solutions allow the sharing of updates with workers and monitoring of the virus’s infection status to determine who is available to work. With these apps, crew members can self-report any symptoms of the virus, or potential exposure, using their smartphones. Dashboards show which workers have completed a self-assessment form, how many are symptomatic or at risk and other related metrics. Managers also can upload employee e-mails to send out

Logging Leader Discusses Industry After RNC Speech By Giles Lambertson CEG CORRESPONDENT

Scott Dane is a former merchant marine careerist who segued into a leadership role in the Minnesota logging industry. Recently, the marine engineer “capped” his diverse career with a national appearance on TV as a speaker at the Republican National Convention — he wore a “Make Logging Great Again” cap during his talk. The television pitch wasn’t show biz for Dane, however. It was a serious attempt to bring to the nation’s attention the straits in which the timber and logging industry finds itself. “Logging is the most dangerous job in the country, but we embrace that risk because we know America was built by strong people building things together,” he told the viewing audience. “America needs us to keep building, and we can’t wait to be part of it.” His appearance at a political event came about because the Trump administration in Washington has been supportive of the industry. The administration gave logging a boost when it imposed a tariff averaging 20 percent on Canadian lumber shipments into the United States. Washington justified the duties on the wood products because most of the timber industry in Canada is provincially owned and is harvested at artificially low cost — it is subsidized, in other words, which violates established fair trade rules. Dane is executive director of Contract Loggers & Truckers of Minnesota. He responded to a telephone interview from Virginia, Minn., approximately 90 mi. south of the Canada-U.S. border. “Every day we would watch train after train go by, heading south from Canada and loaded with Canadian wood products. By imposing duties, that has leveled the playing field somewhat.” The subsidy dispute has gone on for about 40 years. In 2017, President Trump imposed the tariff to restore some competitive pricing. However, the World Trade Organization has sided with Canada in the trade argument, saying the United States hadn’t proven its contention. Dane said the WTO decision is not decisive. “The World Trade Organization doesn’t currently have a full complement of seated members so it’s not able to enforce its decision. It can’t implement it. I think we can maintain the tariff in the long term.” The tariff may lead to talks. In early August, the National Association of Home Builders sent a letter to the administration complaining of increases in lumber prices. It appealed to U.S. lumber companies to “ramp up production” and make it a “priority to work with Canada on a new softwood

Scott Dane is a former merchant marine careerist who segued into a leadership role in the Minnesota logging industry.

lumber agreement.” In Minnesota, logging and wood products industry is top heavy and struggling. At the turn of the 20th century, the state had 30,000 loggers felling pine and other softwood trees. Sawmills were set up near prime pine forests with some two billion board feet of lumber produced annually. But mills have been closing in recent decades and the number of people today dropping and handling the timber totals just 1,500, according to Dane. “Everything downstream from the logging operations — the mills and manufacturing plants — are depending upon 1,500 people in the woods. If something doesn’t happen, we will see the industry decline further,” the executive director said. His organization represents about 175 logging companies and another 50 or so associate members such as John Deere and Caterpillar, manufacturers of logging equipment. In any given month, about 150 of the logging firms are felling trees. One reason the number of logging camp personnel has shrunk dramatically is the modern equipment used to handle the trees. Where 80 to 100 lumberjacks used to work together, a typical operation today numbers two to four people. The number varies, Dane said, depending upon whether the logging is being done conventionally or is a cut-tolength operation. In conventional logging, the camp might have four people operating four machines — a tree-dropping piece of equipment called a feller buncher that saws a tree and lays the logs in an orderly pile, a skidder or two with grapples that drag the logs to an access road, and a knuckleboom loader to place the logs on ribbed semi-trailer trucks for hauling to a mill. Cut-to-length jobs get by with a couple of machines in many cases — a harvester that

drops a trunk, delimbs it and saws it to a desirable length, and a forwarder, which is an articulated machine carrying a hoist that can pick up the pre-cut logs, deposit them on its trailer and haul them to an access road for offloading. So, all those lumberjacks hand-sawing the timber and manhandling it are history. “Mechanization has changed the industry tremendously,” Dane said. “It has made it more productive and safer.” The markets that need fixing now, he said. Minnesota’s pine trees become lumber products, but its spruce, aspen and birch forests are mostly turned into paper products. “We need new markets,” Dane said. “Paper demand continues to decrease. We have been working to transition into the biocrude market, which is really exciting.” A pilot plant in Canada has been distilling wood into the synthetic petroleum product. A mill in Bemidji is prepared to invest $120 million if the new market develops. The holdup to such investment is yet another dispute, this time with the Environmental Protection Agency. “The bureaucratic holdup in the EPA has been going on for three years,” Dane said. The agency’s definition of what constitutes acceptable biomass feedstock for the bio-crude operation is a loner among public oversight groups, he said. “We’re working with this administration to overcome the objection. We have spruce forests that we can’t harvest until it’s determined if it can be used for biomass feedstock. It’s tied the hands of those working on the bio-crude refinery.” Another issue that the current administration has helped out on is more favorable forest management policies. Forest management is a national issue, though not an overriding one in Minnesota where federal tim-

berland constitutes just 10 percent of the total. The issue is between the environmental community and the timber industry, with the ecological lobby arguing against incursions into the forest. The industry responds that logging trees and thinning dead forest stock helps protect standing trees by lessening the hazards of uncontrolled fires, such as the ones currently ravaging parts of California and other Western states. Dane has a son in a firefighting helicopter crew in Oregon, so he is personally familiar with the issue. “For forest fires, you need oxygen and fuel. We can’t take oxygen out of the air and we can’t eliminate lightning strikes,” he said. “The only component of the fire that we can address is fuel. Through proper forest management, we can reduce the fuel load in the woods.” He said the Trump administration has promoted more timbering on federal land and has “streamlined” forest management rules. An immediate focus of the industry is receiving emergency funding during the pandemic. The American Logging Council is spearheading an effort to include the logging and trucking industry in the next COVID-19 financial relief bill. Why it wasn’t included in the first financial recovery bill is unclear, but inclusion in the next bill has support across political parties and in both houses of Congress. Two members of Minnesota’s congressional delegation are co-sponsoring the legislation. “It is critical that we save the mills and trucking industry for when the pandemic ends,” Dane said. The industry is asking for $2.5 billion in assistance. The infusion of cash will indirectly help logging equipment manufacturers and dealers, which have seen a slowdown in sales this year. Dane has led the Minnesota association for 16 years now. Though he has never logged, he is a Minnesota native and his great-grandfather worked in a Minnesota logging camp as a locomotive engineer. He is an executive now, but nevertheless remains a rolled-up-sleeves guy who has welded for a living and is “used to getting my hands dirty.” Still, appearing before a national audience at a political convention is pretty exhilarating. Will it interest him in future political activity? He laughed at the suggestion. “Shortly after I returned home to Minnesota to raise my boys in the woods, I ran for state representative. I felt it was my civic responsibility to get involved. I didn’t win, but I found out how ugly politics can get. A friend asked recently when I was going to run for office again. Before I could say anything, my wife answered, ‘Not in this marriage.”  CEG
